"Hi, Chlo!" Nick said as he walked in the room and gave her a kiss.

"Nick!" She exclaimed, sitting up as best as she could with and IV in her wrist.

"How are you doing, babe?"

"Ok, actually. My breathing has regulated a little bit and the baby is ok. I decided on a name!"

"What?"

"Jade Elizabeth Beale."

"Aww that's gorgeous."

"Beca used my middle name for Harper, so I decided to use hers for Jade"

Beca smiled. "I'm gonna go pick up food. Do you want something, Nick?"

"No, I'm ok, thanks."

Beca went to Hardee's to get the burgers. She decided to get Chloe a strawberry milkshake because that was her favorite, and she figured Chloe needed some cheering up. She got back the the hospital, and Nick wasn't there. "Where'd he go?" She asked, handing her a bag of food.

"He has a business call, but he said he'd be back in a minute."

"Ok. I got you a strawberry milkshake."

"Aw thank you, Becs!"

"No problem. You know I kinda forgot about your asthma for awhile. We gotta keep track of your inhaler. I was really really worried."

"I could tell, I mean you asked me if I was ok every 10 seconds."

"I mean not being able to breathe is pretty scary. I mean it's happened to you before but you've had your inhaler."

"I know, I gotta keep track of that stuff."

"God this place is so depressing."

"It's the worst, they have me hooked up to a heart monitor and everything. I just hope they let me leave when they say they will."

"Oh they better, or I'm gonna go all Fat Amy on 'Em."

"I got you a really great present, by the way."

"Ooh what is it?"

"Isn't it supposed to be a surprise?"

"Fine. Hey I'm gonna call Anna and see if she needs anything."

"Ok."

Hey

Hey, is she any better.

I guess her breathing is a little better. They have her hooked up to a heart monitor, so that's good. Do you need anything for Harper? I can stop by with pajamas and stuff.

No, but she's upset. She wants to see you and Chloe. Do you want me to bring her over? She's not tired yet.

Sure. Thanks so much. I know this was like super last minute so I feel really bad.

Oh don't worry. We'll be there in about 20 minutes. I'm still at Chloe's place.

Can you bring my crutches, too?

Yeah. No problem. See you in a few.

"Alright, so Anna's coming with Harper because she misses you."

"Aw she's an angel. I miss her too. I really don't want to be in here until tomorrow night."

"I know you don't, but it's better for you, so you can be healthy for my wedding."

"I get it."

"So they should be here in about 5 minutes. She's bringing my crutches, not like I'm going to be walking around or anything, but still."
